EBC Managing Director Paul Stanforth commented; -
"The EBCO brand is now the preferred choice of major, multiple and specialist retailers in the UK and we have calculated that the EBCO brand is available in more dealer outlets than any other brand of Electric bikes in the UK. We believe this is because of our comprehensive quality built product range, our commitment to after sales service back up, extensive dealer training and carrying stock for a quick 24-hour delivery...and now with TranzX Can-bus diagnostics our retailers have more tools to assist with customer care for bikes at a lower price point."
"The Electric bike market is gaining real momentum and we are making sure the EBCO brand is at the head of the charge!"
